On a completely separate note, I will be inviting a friend that works for Christie's auction house. He specifically works in the Wine department and often gets to try hundred dollar bottles (and occasionally brings $50 bottles to parties, which I never complain about). I apologize in advance if he's a wine snob!

sadly, I also can't make it down - I've been gone for the past week.5 and now that I'm back, it seems like half the cleanroom is broken. Any other summer I'd be there, but now, what with wanting to graduate in august, I have this strange feeling of . . .pressure? responsibility? something wierd

Please try to do something in the Virginia Wine Country down my way...there "just a few" of us wine drinkers down here! We're all in the military and therefore something closer to home would make it easier to attend

Love your site!

You need to make it up to one of our many, many NoVA/DC tastings! Check the "World of wine.woot" under the community tab.

If I took the subway there, which one should I use - if any?
Just checked Google Maps and they suggest my trip would end with the L to Bedford Ave Station, is that what you would suggest?

Take the JMZ line to Marcy which will put you closer. Here is a map to show where you are in relation to 224 Roebling St. from there.

Shamer and I were actually set to go on this.
Then, reality sets in...I have come down with a throat infection.
Took cultures today and we'll see what it is but in the meantime I've lost my voice.
Am praying this clears up before Friday.

Oh no! Hope you feel better, if you have no voice, don't worry we can play tasting notes charades.

Wish I could make it! We're in Rochester this weekend though. And Fridays...well...not so easy to get down there on a Friday night with work and all. Maybe next time For the record I think this is an awesome idea and really really hope there is a next time.

So with less than 1 day to go.....

See you in Brooklyn!

...and the day has arrived...word on the street is Winedavid and his brother are in the area and will be in Brooklyn for the grand event. To easy to get side tracked in this town so I'll make sure they find their way over. Looking forward to seeing all the faithful Wooters that can make the trek over to Brooklyn tonight!

pssss...Keep the night open for the Woot Cellars after party at the Hope Lounge just up the street from Like the Spice!

Having been to the hope lounge several times, I can assure everyone that we will not be the lamest people there!

Well I forgot to bring my camera, but I can say it was extremely interesting meeting WineDavid and enjoying a preview of the upcoming WOOT cellars wine.

You will find it to be a very refreshing summer wine. Our appetizers consisted of shrimp spring rolls, summer rolls, spiced roasted assorted nuts, bread, and cheese. I don't want to give too much away, but it went well with everything.
